I get people trying to spell it Neal, and I tell them that Neals are idiots. I wondered if Neil Armstrong had anything to do with the popularity around the time I was born (1984). didn't even'think of Young or DI'mond.

I was named Neil in the UK 1969.Always thought it quite suited me & like that its not too common. My own mother used to sometimes misspell it, Niel instead of Neil.Much to the dI'may of a teacher one time whist reading a sick note. I have also very often been refered to as Ian.

"Neal"s are inferior to us. They can have their fake spelling of our name for all I care.

My name is Neil. It's a pretty decent name. Unusual enough so I am usually the only Neil in a group. I was definitely the only Neil through school and college.
